You might want to look at the source for the R 'its' package. It defines
an S4 class for an irregular time series whose representation
consists of
1. a matrix portion analogous to your vector portion to hold the series
of multivariate series, and
2. a "dates" slot analogous to your accurate s
Hi Martin
